I agree, just a regular release would be nice.

beyond the skull...no other releases? or was this project shelved?

The project is not shelved. Actually Balzac and Hiddy are currently in discussions for the next one! The schedule was pushed back in the early Fall due to the band's touring schedule. We were initially going to go for it this month, but it's a bad time of year with Xmas coming up and lots of other merch. being on sale right now. We felt everyone's wallets would be happier if we aimed for January for the next one.

Sorry we couldn't keep our schedule of releasing every 3 months... But, I hope the series will actually be better because of it!

I think that with the release of the best of, that January would be a better time for this set. This time of year seems to always be the busiest for Balzac releases.

nah, no apologies needed - just curious! I fully understand the rigors of maintaining multiple schedules and having things coincide with end of the year madness. My wallet, though, does thank you for the breather

Thanks for all your patience guys... we are about to get this ball rolling again!

Just posted this over on the Balzac308 BxBxS, but the next figure will be a SkullBxBxB ("Bagman").

Pre-Order will begin on February 14th. I don't have confirmation on the color(s) yet.. but the figures are going to be marbled. Likely black and something (I hope glow!). There will be a regular version, a 4-Seasons of the Dead special bag + blood splatter version (not sure if they are all bloody or only some - perhaps we can request), and a Secret Base-only bag version (my guess is we won't be selling this one through SxWxW).

They will ship March 8th. I will post more info when I have it - just wanted to let you guys know we didn't abandon the project!... we were just REALLY slow!

BOOM!

yea. that sounds prettyfuckingawesome

BOOMfuckinawesomeNOICE!

HELL YES

I'm super excited, I hope I can swing at least 2 of the versions!

This news makes me happy.

Pictures will make me more so!

I don't think we got pics of the skulls until well after the pre-order. All i need to know is bagman and marbled.

YES! More marbled goodness!

Will be well worth the wait!

If you guys want a marbled Skullman to go with the upcoming 4 Season's marbled SkullBxBxB, we've got a Valentine's Skullman + Mug Cup set up right now. It's not part of the 4 Seasons four toy set, but it will fit right in! There will also be a White Day version with red marbling.

so wish i could have managed to get one of these!

Dont let Andy see this,between the skull and the marble vinyl he will be calling out Pushead rip off !

ZING!!




(points at Andy)

So THAT is why I collect both?! It all makes sense now

Wait how is that a 'zing'? Doesn't secretbase make both toys? And aren't a lot of secretbase toys going through a marbling phase right now? (obake dogs/pirates/wings etc)

I guess if this was made by gargamel I can see it being a zing but otherwise....

Are you STILL trying to perpetuate this discussion?

Don't derail Ryan's thread . . . take it to PM's if you have to (but don't delete 'em before I have chance to read 'em again . . . that shit's just lame!).

i meant Zing as in, he got him with a barb. maybe i shouldve typed it as ZOWEE!! like that action effect in the old batman tv show.

What I said was just a light heated joke at Andy.... jeez, everyone can joke and its allll good, but when I say something its all serious faces and baseball bats lol

Joke / fail ...

That deleted PM was pretty much what I said in my thread, so lighten up if, I had something to say believe me you would have gotten it, don't be a ass and try to call me out by trying to be a tough guy for no reason. I will send exactly what I was gonna say though if you like but its worthless.

This is no derail unless you turn it into one which you are doing. I was just joking and your turning this serious. You could have snickered and it would have been over, haha very funny what ever.

Come on man this is ridiculous ... Just PM me instead of replying here to make this worse if you need to.

I think this release is great and marble toys and skulls made in Japan are great, carry on.
